Samrien is a contemporary painter primarily working in oil, exploring form through impasto, held in material tension. Built through intuitive gestures, the works develop as tactile surfaces, where color and texture extend beyond the visual.

Rooted in lived experience, the paintings register shifting states of perception and feeling, without becoming descriptive. Each holds a fleeting presence, shaped through accumulation and disruption, remaining in a state of continual emergence. The practice remains ongoing, grounded in an evolving engagement with surface and the act of painting.

Based in Mumbai. The practice is grounded in a sustained focus on material, gesture, and surface.
